Default Oil In Distributor Cap? Please Help!!!

Hello, i was driving down the freeway & all of a sudden my rex dies.
(It's an 85 1.5 Carbed Model)
I check a few things out 1st, then i pop open the dist.cap & to my utter suprise theres a little puddle of oil waiting for me! Oh happy day! What would cause this? How would i go about about fixing it? Are there any temporary fixes for this? Please help me, thanks

Your Distributor shaft's O-Ring needs to be replaced...Remove your distributor, take the O-Ring off the shaft and go to Pep Boys, AutoZone, Discount Auto, etc and match your O-Ring with a new O-ring Replacement...
